Hi, I have noticed that I always get a segmentation fault if I use the openGL versions of the sinks. This seems to be dependent on the graphics chipset, I have two computers both with Intel G965. The segfault can be avoided with LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1, eg, $ LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1

python pipes are buffered. if your command produces a lot of output, then the pipes can fill up, if you don't read from them. One solution is to move to the subprocess module: http://docs.python.org/library/subprocess.html#module-subprocess Cheers, Thomas On Sun, Apr 12, 2009 at 9:52 PM,

The segfault can be avoided with LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1, eg, $ LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1 usrp_oscope.py thats very useful to know Although this slows things down a little bit, it should still be faster than pure software rendering. I would be interested in reports from other people,

Hi all,   I have two USRPs. I would like to implement some functions (RTS and NAV) in 802.11 MAC. Actually, I want to use RTS to control one of the nodes when to send out packets. When the node recieves the RTS, it should set up its NAV. Hence, the node will not send any packets out during the
